it's sort of enabling me alright!

I have to decide either FC Diver/ Ceramic Diver or ROO Panda to pair up with the Bee.

Tough choice!

I am still have lukewarm feelings for the ROO (I know ), but the Panda might just do it for me.

truth be told, I would love to have a Panda that has FC casing + Ceramic bezel.

haha. ever since I've worn the Bee, it's magical.

Pictures dont justify this beautifully crafted piece.

Does the Panda wear heavier ( slightly or significantly )?

Also, when was the Panda released. 4-5 years ago?

I believe there is a 40-50 gram difference in weight.

i see.
Having owned both models, what are your views on each piece?
Would like to hear what you have to say about panda/bee.

Also, should the 2nd ROO be panda or diver FC/ceramic? haha

Panda is much heavier than the BB particularly on bracelet. IIRC wasn't the Panda released with the Safari and Volcano in 2007?

Both are great and very different in look, feel and weight. Love both for different reasons.

wow, 8 years has gone by fast. It seems as though these watches arrived into the collection just 3 years ago.

I would probably get it in leather and get a F1 strap to spice things up..

Mike, could you provide me the link of your panda for sale? I read it somewhere.
